The Haematocrit test assesses the percentage of red blood cells (RBCs) present in the blood. Blood is made up of several components, including RBCs, white blood cells, platelets, and plasma. RBCs are responsible for carrying oxygen from the lungs to various parts of the body, while white blood cells help to fight off infections, and platelets are essential for blood clotting to prevent excessive bleeding. Plasma serves as the liquid medium that transports these cells throughout the body.
Abnormal haematocrit readings may point to various health conditions such as dehydration, anaemia, or other blood disorders. High haematocrit levels can indicate a condition known as polycythaemia, a rare disorder characterized by an increased number of RBCs, which makes the blood thicker. On the other hand, low haematocrit levels may signal anaemia.
This test is often included in a complete blood count, which is part of regular health assessments or is ordered when there are symptoms related to blood disorders.
A Hb PCV test is performed to keep track of ongoing health issues or as part of a standard health assessment. It may also be ordered if symptoms indicate RBC disorders, such as anaemia or polycythaemia.
The signs of anaemia include: ● Light-headedness ● Irregular heart rhythms ● Tiredness or weakness ● Breathlessness ● Headaches
The signs of polycythaemia include: ● Excessive sweating, especially at night ● Blurred vision or visual disturbances ● Skin reactions, such as itching after bathing, burning sensations, or a flushed face ● Dizziness or light-headedness ● Fatigue or weakness ● Breathlessness ● Headaches ● Bleeding gums or heavy bleeding from minor injuries
Recognising these symptoms early via a haematocrit test is vital for effectively treating and managing any underlying conditions.
